Strategic Leadership: How to Leverage Strengths and Manage Weaknesses of Your Team

Would You Rather Be a Manager or a Leader?

Success as a team leader today requires more than just managing resources, tasks, and people. It extends beyond merely relying on control, structure, and positional authority to maintain stability and efficiency.

It’s about understanding the people behind the work. It’s about creating an environment where people can thrive. It’s about setting a vision, inspiring people, and driving long-term change. Leaders choose to motivate through influence and trust, encouraging innovation and personal growth while guiding their team towards a larger goal.

In essence, managers manage the present, while leaders guide towards the future.

Big companies often see people as numbers, while smaller companies struggle to assemble teams that can drive business growth and success.

In this course, Strategic Leadership: How to Leverage Strengths and Manage Weaknesses of Your Team, you’ll learn how to use the DISA behavioural personality framework to better understand your team’s unique strengths and challenges. By recognising the different behavioural styles—Dominance, Influence, Stable, and Analytical—you’ll gain insights into how to communicate more effectively, align tasks with individual strengths, and address potential gaps.
